their own biography
the whole biography
Astrologically speaking, it’s said that water signs are characterized by their intuition, sensitivity and depth of emotion. John Silas’s work is innately imbued with these qualities. Composed of four original tracks (along with two additional mixes), the producer and instrumentalist’s debut EP, Water Sign, is largely joyously attuned to the dance. Yet these compositions diverge into moments of quieter introspection evocative of a kind of personal chronicle. For John, who’s seen more than his share of nomadic movement buoyed by periods of meditative creativity, it’s a reflection of lived experience: a journey that’s synthesized the influences of childhood Soul Train episodes, adolescent hip-hop sample spotting, tutelage on the MPC2000XL, collaboration with extended family within the Detroit dance music community, record shop clerkdom, and his current citizenship on the planet of nouveau Brooklyn. It’s also an approach entirely at home within the ethos of Love Injection Records - an outpost that’s long championed sounds that span the visceral expanse.Their RA profile lists Steady Flight Circle and Love Injection.Recently at Eavesdrop, Nowadays · often with Marco Weibel, Nappy Nina, Haseeb Iqbal, none of them here that night
